That's a 2.5 c. diamond. I'm not sure what to think re
cpt. Not much to go on. If I wasn't so busy, I'd go back
and look at early ABZ figures. VP, don't fret about contests
like this. On SI most of the posters seem relatively sane.
The 50c diamond comes from SH. I mentioned it for a laugh.
SH seems to be the location for teenagers who belong to
stock groups at school, buy penny stocks and then post
each other messages to excite the naive or unwary.

When WSP was just starting out, I ran a contest like this.
It wasn't to hype anything. It was just to have some fun
while we waited for results. I offered a bottle of scotch
for the winning estimate, then discovered that sending
the bottle was too much hassle and mailed the winner
twenty-five bucks to buy a bottle.

Check out the twg thread on SH. It really is good for a
laugh. Makes me think of the kid whose name I've forgotten
who made eight hundred thou pumping pennies. Couldn't
figure out how he did it until an investigation showed
he was the shill for a promoter with a very shady past.
Easy to win horse races when the race is rigged.
